Yellow Fever in Florida.

+ The Marine Hospital Bureau in Washing
ton has received u telegram from Deputy Col
lector Spencer, at Tampa, Florida, in which
he says there are twenty six cases of sickness
in all; two deaths have occurred that the
majority of sick are convalescing that the
town is depopulated aud very little material
left. He says the doctors disagree as to
whether the disease is dengue oryellow fever.
DIR. George w. Stone, Chief of the Quaran-
tine Division, says that if it is dengue there is
no causefor alarm nor necessity for rigid guar
antine, but if doubt exists.it is proper to act
on the side of safety. Dengue, or as it is
sometimes called, breakbone fever, is a very
distressing infectious disease-not contagious
in the usual deception of the term and rarely
fatal unless complicated with other diseases.
Dengue prevailed in the West Indies and
many places in the South about fifty years ago
and was prevalent in several Southern cities
in 1850, especially in Charleston, where about
four iifths of the population were attacked, but
only few deaths relatively occurred. In
yellow fever the mortality is sometimes as
high as seventy-6 five per cent. Frost kills the
disease. DIR. Stone believes the disease at
Tampa TO be yellow fever.

alton purposes, and five cents, as provided

am personally apprised OF the Presidents

at the rate President Cleveland is now liv-

be done to bring him to realize his danger

fixing up of room in the White House and
the setting apart OF half b ur every day

my opinion will prevent catastrophe the
